CVE-2026-57843NetBSD mm_open() PK_KMEM Flag Kernel Pointer Information Disclosure

Açıklama

NetBSD contains an information disclosure vulnerability in mm_open() within sys/dev/mm.c that allows unprivileged local users to obtain real kernel virtual addresses by opening world-accessible devices such as /dev/null or /dev/zero, which incorrectly receive the PK_KMEM process flag. Attackers can exploit this misconfigured flag to bypass the CANSEE_KPTR obfuscation mechanism and read kernel virtual addresses for sensitive kernel structures including struct proc, kauth_cred, filedesc, and vmspace via sysctl KERN_PROC queries.

Veri: CVE.org, NVD, CISA KEV, FIRST EPSS, Ubuntu. Bilgiler kaynaktaki haliyle, İngilizce yayımlanır.
